Compared to you, Gayle, I am such a couch potato! You really get things done all of the time! I think it's wonderful, and I wish that I had your zest and energy!
I barely go into town....it's just too much trouble!
Diana, I am glad that you fell better today. My prayers go with Damon, Dae Lynn and the kids. It will be so good for him, and though he will be away from his family, the outcome will be so good.
Janet, the "bratty" brother showed up, huh? It sounds like they are afraid to mess with you, the way they were conferencing without you there!
When my father and stepmother's condo in Florida was sold, there was a realtor from Florida handling it. I don't know how they came up with the asking price. I wasn't involved, except to agree or disagree. The market was terrible, and it wasn't sold for much, but my stepmother wanted it sold so that she could move up north. It really didn't matter if it was sold then or not, but she seemed to be set on that idea. She had already started to forget a lot, and she was in her late 80's, so I agreed on the price. A nice man, who really was struggling with the economy bought it, which was nice. I can't imagine that you will have that much trouble selling your Mom's land, unless the market is still so low. Any chance that you would keep it, and have a place to go to when the cold gets to you?
Linds, that sounds like so much work! You and Scott are so handy! How does the doctor think you got that infection? I hope the medication helps right away.
Good luck tomorrow on week 2 of your new job!
I stayed in today. It was a rainy day, and I needed to relax. I had the kids from early on Friday till around 7 last night. They had such a good time! They played in the pool, and Mackenzie and I hung out while she looked at all of the cute boys! She is usually very stand offish, but she got over a little bit of her shyness. She asked 3 of the kids to be friends on facebook. I am really proud that she is overcoming her shyness. She is at that awkward stage, and thinks she is fat, has terrible legs, is weird, and so on. I took them down to the pool Friday night to try to see some of themeteor shower, but it was too cloudy and the full moon hindered us seeing anything. My friend Deb went down with her two girls, and I think that helped break the ice for Mackenzie. They have never spoken to her before! They don't speak to anyone except the people they have known for years!
They are going to Hatteras Island in about a week. I am going to miss them!!!
